To actually input the column "C2", position a cursor (not shown) at the center point P of the square cross section of the square steel 11 forming the column "C2" to be input, and click.
Based on this, the personal computer 1 creates image data of the pillar “C2”, and as shown in FIG. 11, the cross-sectional shape of the pillar “C2” made of square steel 11 is displayed so as to surround the center point P. Also, the symbol "C2" indicating the type of pillar
Is displayed.

Other supporting columns "C1", "C3", "C"
The input of "4" can be performed in the same manner as the input of the pillar "C2". In that case, it is possible to change the cross-sectional dimension of each support column displayed on the input screen A in correspondence with the actual cross-sectional dimension of the column, but in this embodiment, each support column is simplified for simplicity. The pillars "C1" to "C4" are displayed on the input screen A with the same cross-sectional dimensions, and the type of pillar is indicated by the symbol "C".
They are identified by "1" to "C4". Pillar "KT
The input method of "1" is also the same, and the cross-sectional dimensions on the input screen A are also equal to the cross-sectional dimensions of the support columns "C1" to "C4".

The input positions of the supporting columns "C1" to "C4" and the column "KT1" do not necessarily have to be designated by the center point P of the square cross section of the square steel 11 forming them, and for example, Alternatively, the cross-sectional shape of the square steel 11 may be displayed on the input screen A by inputting the position of any one of the corner portions of the square steel 11 at one point on the input screen A.

FIG. 12 shows an input example of a floor plan. When inputting the floor plan of each floor, for example, while inputting the beam 12 of the floor, the column of the floor immediately below the floor (from the ramen column “H” made of H-shaped steel 10 or the square steel 11 having a square cross section) The supporting columns "C1" to "C4") are input in the above-described procedure. For example, the floor plan on the second floor has beams 12 on the second floor.
And the pillar on the first floor located below it. In addition,

After placing the cursor on 6 and clicking, place the cursor on the member to be deleted and click again, the image data related to the member is deleted from the storage unit of the personal computer 1, and the image representing the member is displayed in the image display area. Deleted from A2. When the floor plan of one floor is completed, subsequently, the floor button B7 in the operation button display area A1 is clicked to sequentially designate the other floors to create a floor plan for each floor of the house.

When the structural calculation is to be performed at the stage where the floor plans of all floors have been created, when the personal computer 1 is instructed to perform the structural calculation, each member whose figure is input in the above-mentioned floor plan is converted into the above-mentioned conversion. Is converted into coordinate data by the program for structure calculation, and subsequently the structure calculation is executed by the structure calculation program based on this coordinate data. The result of structural calculation,
When it is determined that the strength of any member is insufficient, the floor plan is changed to reinforce the member or its peripheral portion.

For example, when it is determined that one of the rigid frame columns made of H-section steel 10 has insufficient strength, it is possible to make a change such as adding another rigid frame column or a supporting column in the vicinity of this rigid frame column. If it is possible, or if it is determined whether any one of the supporting columns made of the square steel 11 has insufficient strength, the square steel 11 is replaced with a square steel 11 having a larger cross-sectional dimension.
Can be replaced with, or the number of supporting columns can be increased. Then, after the design change, the above structural calculation may be performed again.

In the above embodiment, "C1" to "C"
4) Which support pillar to use is selected by the input operator, but a selection criterion is created in advance according to the usage position of the support pillar and stored in the storage unit of the personal computer 1. Alternatively, the personal computer 1 may be configured to automatically select the type of the supporting pillar based on the above selection criteria when the input operator inputs the supporting pillar. As a selection criterion in that case, as shown in FIG. 12, for example, "C2" is used as the supporting pillar located on the outer circumference of the house, and "C4" is used as the supporting pillar not located on the outer circumference. The standard of can be set.

In the case of automatic selection, if one of the supporting columns is judged to be insufficient in strength when the above-mentioned structural calculation is performed after the input of the floor plan is completed, the personal computer 1 supports the insufficient strength. The columns are preferably automatically sized, i.e. replaced with larger cross-sectional dimensions, and configured to perform structural calculations again.
